Description

Details

The Home Security Visonic Powermax Design Express is unique among alarm systems and is EXCLUSIVE to HomeSecurityStore.com, meaning you won't find it anywhere else. Meant to protect against burglary, fire, and even tampering, the Design Express is not only sleek and stylish so as to fit with any home decor, but it features a powerful all-in-one, self-contained panel that simultaneously functions as controller, receiver, sounder and keypad. This control panel is equipped to monitor and collect data from an unprecedented 28 wireless zones, as well as 1 additional hardwired zone. That means that no matter how large your space is, you can integrate various motion, flood & smoke detectors, window & door contacts, sirens, additional keypads, and more!

The Home Security Powermax Design Express Kit has different functions depending on whether it is in an armed or disarmed state. In its armed state, the system will initiate an alarm when disturbance is detected in any of the armed zones, i.e. the PIR detector sensing unauthorized motion in its designated zone. On the other hand, while in its disarmed state the system will provide you with visual status information, and will trigger an alarm if smoke is detected (if you integrate a smoke sensor) or when a disturbance occurs within a 24-hour zone.

Changeable Skins

You can't get more stylish than the Home Security Powermax Design Express Kit. Featuring 8 changeable skins in different vibrant colors including brown, babyblue, canary, ivory, slate, gunmetal, silver and evergreen, you can match your alarm kit to virtually any style and color decor within your home. Sticking and unsticking your color skin is easy and will leave no unsightly residue behind.

PSTN (Public Switch Telephone Network)

The Home Security Powermax Design Express is unique among alarm systems of its kind as it features a sophisticated in-built PSTN alert feature. Let's face it, you can't stay at home all day. So while you are away or simply at work during the day, this system will keep you notified of any disturbances occurring at your residence by simply calling you (through a landline connection) or another private telephone number with a unique siren signal signifying either a FIRE, a BURGLAR or another emergency. Acknowledgment of the message is required and simple to do, but in case you miss the call, the system will continue to reach you until you are properly alerted. The PSTN feature is useful for anyone wanting to control their alarm system remotely also. Simply use your private phone to dial into your Express Kit and you can both arm or disarm your system using a series of executable commands right from your keypad.

Looking After People Left at Home

If you have elderly or disabled loved ones who are frequently left at home, the Powermax Design Express is designed specifically to cater to precisely this situation. The Design Express Kit can be programmed to perform contrary to the system's usual behavior and monitor when motion is NOT detected. Indeed, it is only natural that even the most immobile of elderly and disabled persons will move at least occasionally, whether to turn over in their sleep, or to simply grab something from the kitchen. You can, however, set a “lack of motion” time limit that will trigger an alarm if motion hasn't been detected for a long period of time. The countdown will restart if motion is detected at any moment within the time frame.

Optional GSM Module

Additionally, the Home Security Powermax Design Express Kit can be expanded to include a GSM module (not included). A GSM module is useful both because as a cellular-based device, it can provide backup protection in case your PSTN connection is down, so you'll never miss a single crucial alert in case of a burglary. More impressively, however, a GSM module will allow you to both send and receive SMS (text) messages to and from your private cellular phone. The Express Kit can be programmed to alert a maximum of 4 pre-selected telephone numbers to TEXT in case of an emergency, while arming, disarming and other remote commands to your system is as simple as sending a 1 to 3 word SMS message instantly.

PLEASE NOTE: While the PLINK2 Module availablein the accessories tab is also compatible with this unit, you may not use a GSM module with the PLINK2 accessory simultaneously.

(2) Visonic Miniature Wireless Contact - MCT-320

The MCT-320 is meant primarily for protecting doors and windows. The MCT-320 uses a built-in magnet that works in conjunction with a magnetic contact to detect precisely when a door or window are being opened/closed. The MCT-320 is ideal for both your home or business, while its very small size is convenient both because it is virtually invisible and easy to install.

The MCT-320 also features a unique anti-collision algorithm that prevents what is known as "signal jamming" by the simultaneous transmission of multiple devices. The MCT-320 is able to transmit periodic "supervision signals" to confirm that your system is connected at all times.

Very small, almost invisible design

Highly cost-effective for low-profile installations

Fully supervised

Double tamper protection (cover and wall)

Long-life standard lithium battery included

LED indicator (can be disabled).

(1) Visonic Wireless Pet Immune Motion PIR Detector 85lbs - K9-85MCW

The Next K9-85 MCW is a PowerCode wireless digital PIR detector designed to enable homeowners to secure their homes while allowing their pets to move freely anywhere in the house. Employing Visonic's patented "Target Specific Imaging" optical system (TSI) and unique pet identification software algorithm, the Next K9-85 has an unprecedented capacity to reliably distinguish between human bodies and pets weighing up to 38 kg (85lb).

The MCT-237 is a 6-button miniature wireless 2-way keyfob with an icon-based LCD display designed for arming and disarming the security system, as well as for emergency signaling, query for status and home automation applications. It provides instant visual and auditory feedback regarding the system status and whether a command has been successfully executed, so that users can always be certain that the system has carried out their command.

Unique to the PowerMaxPro and PowerMaxComplete security and control systems, the MCT-237 offers the ultimate in ease and performance by integrating an LCD screen in a 2-way keyfob.
